Client Albert Heijn – Efteling
Role 2D Art – Art direction
Platform Mobile – Tablet
Launched 2017
For Albert Heijn and Efteling I was able to work on a Augmented Reality fairy tale story book. For this campaign you were able to collect stamps at Albert Heijn and unlock all the stories. Beside the stories players could also take a 360 ° ride in two exciting roller coasters from the Efteling! During this project I was responsible for art direction and the missing 2D art for 4 of the fairy tails that Efteling was not able to provide me with.
Art assets
The art is drawn with a Wacom Cintiq Companion and Wacom Intuos 3. I was able to bend my drawing style into four of the existing art styles, and made sure that each time the process would go quicker and smoother.

Promotional & Store art
For promotional purposes I created mobile store art and images. By taking elements from the game, making highress renders in Unity 3D, creating effects and bringing everything together in Photoshop I was able to brush everything smooth and pixel perfect.

Client Internet of Elephants
Role Concept / Prototype design & art
Platform Mobile – PC
Launched 2016
Internet of Elephants is a social enterprise based in Kenya and the United States. They are a collaboration of technologists, conservationists, educators, game designers, and strategists working together towards a stronger connection between people and wild animals.
For this purpose I was able to create a number of concepts and prototypes.
A promotional piece I created for the testing audience
Concepts
Various concept and designs ideas, from a elephant roulette, to a wildlife safari in your own town or taking care of a baby elephant.
A concept where you can creating a dream team of animals that would cover the greatest distance and play against friends.
Augmented Reality Application
Below are the Interface and visual I created using photoshop, illustrator, wacom intuos 3 and Unity 3D.
Game prototype 01
The very first prototype was created to test if playing with real animal data (gps data of the behavior of an elephant) would be fun and make players more connected to wildlife thousands of miles away.
Each day Amelie would walk a distance and players had to quess were she would go, determined on the behavior of the elephant.
Game prototype 2
Created a second prototype where you are able to get more information about Amelie and follow her. I wanted to give the players a better feeling of where they are, so instead of a very styles map like in the first prototype I wanted to have a map that would show the environment.

Souls was short project made in 4 days with a team of colleagues. We wanted to create a 2D point & click Adventure with a mysterious touch. I created the characters, some of 2D environment assets and also placed them into Unity 3D to create the whole scene in layers that would have depth.

Drone Escape is a narrative experiment made by a team of 5 people (2 – programmers, 1 – 3D artist, 1 – 2D artist and one sound designer). The player assumes the body of an unnamed drone who is ‘woken up’ by another drone. You need to perform a repeating set of tasks, but these become tedious quite fast. There is seemingly a way out, but how to get there…
Helped creating the story concept. I supplied the 3D artist in the team with rough concept sketches for the environment assets, some of the textures, created the branding for the game as well as a few animations in Unity 3D for the drone.
We made this demo within a week.

Here are a couple of the sketches that had to be made in just 2 days.

A fun and colorful Nintendo Wii golf game for Lorena Ochoa (Mexican professional golfer). You use the Wii mote as a virtual golf stick to make the shots. You drive around in a cabby and can travel to exotic and strange locations, ranging from cloudy mountain tops to dense jungles. For this project I created several character versions of Lorena that would be able to fit well in the game.
